Enhancing spectral efficiency of FSO system using adaptive SIM/M‐PSK and SIMO in the presence of atmospheric turbulence and pointing errors

This paper proposes an adaptive transmission modulation (ATM) technique for free‐space optical (FSO) links over gamma‐gamma turbulence channels.The ATM technique provides efficient utilization of the FSO channel capacity for improving spectral efficiency, by adapting the order of the phase‐shift keying modulation scheme, according to the channel conditions and the required bit error rate (BER). To overcome the channel degradation resulting from the turbulence effects as well as the pointing errors (PEs), single‐input multiple‐output (SIMO) system with maximal ratio combining (MRC) is proposed. Exact closed‐form expressions of BER and upper bound of the capacity are derived and verified by Monte Carlo simulations. The numerical results show that the proposed adaptive technique improves the spectral efficiency (SE) five times higher than the nonadaptive technique at the same BER threshold (10^?3).This improvement is achieved at signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) equals 27 and 42  dB in the case of atmospheric turbulence without and with PE, respectively. Furthermore, this SE could be obtained while the SNR = 30  dB by using ( 1 × 4 ) SIMO scheme with MRC and PE and having the same transmitting optical power.     

An OFDM-TDMA/SA MAC Protocol with QoS Constraints for Broadband Wireless LANs

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is an important technique to support high speed transmission of broadband traffic in wireless networks, especially broadband wireless local area networks (LANs). Based on OFDM, a new multiple access scheme, called OFDM-TDMA with subcarrier allocation (OFDM-TDMA/SA), is proposed in this paper. It provides more flexibility in resource allocation than other multiple access schemes such as OFDM-TDMA, OFDM-frequency division multiple access (OFDM-FDMA), and orthogonal frequency division multiple access (OFDMA). With OFDM-TDMA/SA, a medium access control (MAC) is designed for broadband wireless LANs. It optimizes bit allocation in subcarriers so that maximum bits are transmitted in each OFDM symbol under a frequency selective fading environment. The OFDM-TDMA/SA MAC protocol also supports three classes of traffic such as guaranteed, controlled-load, and best effort services. Based on the optimum subcarrier bit-allocation algorithm and considering heterogeneous QoS constraints of multimedia traffic, a hierarchical scheduling scheme is proposed to determine the subcarriers and time slots in which a mobile terminal can transmit packets. In such a way, the OFDM-TDMA/SA MAC protocol significantly increases system throughput in a frequency selective fading environment and guarantees QoS of multimedia traffic. Computer simulation is carried out to evaluate the performance of the OFDM-TDMA/SA MAC protocol. Results show that the new MAC protocol outperforms other MAC protocols for OFDM-based wireless LANs. This work was supported by the State of Georgia Yamacraw Project (E21-105).     

The impact of impulse postfix length on the BER performance of IP‐OFDM systems

The impulse postfix OFDM (IP‐OFDM) system exploits the IP, which consists of a high power impulse sample and several zero samples at the end of a zero padded‐OFDM symbol block, to estimate channel impulse response (CIR) in time domain. In this paper, the impact of IP length on the BER performance of the IP‐OFDM system is analyzed. According to the analytic results, the BER performance can be significantly degraded with both a shorter length of IP as well as a longer length of IP than that of the CIR. Thus, an adaptive IP scheme, which adjusts the length of IP adaptively depending on the length of CIR, is proposed to enhance the BER performance of IP‐OFDM systems and its effectiveness is demonstrated by computer simulations. The BER performance of the IP‐OFDM systems with the proposed adaptive scheme is compared with that of the conventional IP‐OFDM system over various modulation schemes. Simulation results show that the IP‐OFDM with the proposed scheme can achieve about 2 dB performance enhancement compared with that of conventional systems at BER=10^?2.

Spectral efficiency improvement with SISO and SIMO in M‐QAM over millimeter‐wave links

This paper proposes a spectral efficiency improvement technique for millimeter wave (mmWave) links. The proposed technique provides an efficient utilization of the mmWave link capacity. This technique is applied in three cases the single‐input single‐output (SISO), single‐input multiple‐output (SIMO) with the maximal ratio combining and with the equal gain combining. The M‐ary quadrature amplitude modulation scheme is used in our work. The power series expansion is used for deriving closed‐form expressions for bit error rate (BER) performances in all studied cases. The BER closed‐form expressions are confirmed by the numerical solution of the integral equations. The simulation results show that a high spectral efficiency can be accomplished by the proposed technique. As well as the derived expressions closely match with the numerical solution of integration expressions at different values of modulations order the Rician factor. For instance, the spectral efficiency gain achievement is 8 at signal‐to‐noise ratio (SNR) equals 34 dB in the case of SISO system whereas in the case of SIMO system, the same gain is achieved at SNR equals 24 dB. As well as the BER performance is enhanced from 1.188 × 10^?4, 7.112 × 10^?4, 4.164 × 10^?3, and 3.286 × 10^?2 to 8.717 × 10^?16, 1.119 × 10^?12, 1.308 × 10^?9, and 4.905 × 10^?6 for M = 4, 16, 64, and 256, respectively, at SNR equals 30 dB.     

Experimental evaluation of the BER performance in optical OFDM system based on discrete Hartley transform precoding

We experimentally assess the bit error rate （BER） performance of an intensity modulation/direct detection （IM/DD） optical orthogonal frequency division multiplexing （OFDM） system based on discrete Hartley transform （DHT） precoding in single-mode fiber （SMF） link for 2.5 Gbit/s quadrature phase shift keying （QPSK） OFDM symbol rate. The experimental results show that for the optical OFDM system based on DHT-precoding, the receiver sensitivity at the BER of 10-4 after 100 km SMF transmission is about 1.5 dBm better than that of the original QPSK OFDM signal, and the DHT-precoded OFDM QPSK signal can achieve approximately 1.3 dB of peak-to-average power ratio （PAPR） reduction.

Performance analysis of concatenated BCH and convolutional coded OFDM system

ABSTRACT

Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing (OFDM) is a widely used technique for wireless communications. But uncoded OFDM is not sufficient by itself, that is why channel coding is included to increase the system performance. In this study, concatenated Bose Chaudhuri Hocquenghem (BCH) and Convolutional Coded (CC) OFDM system is investigated for multipath fading channel with Additive White Gaussian Noise (AWGN). The simulation results show that the proposed concatenated code needs lower Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) when compared with single BCH code, single convolutional code and even with other concatenated systems. Throughout the simulations BCH coding is performed with 128, 256, 512 Fast Fourier Transform (FFT) lengths; whereas convolutional coding is performed with 1/2, 1/3 coding rates. Furthermore, interleavers are added to the system to prevent the burst errors that occur over the channel. With the proposed system, the best result is obtained by using BCH(511,340) and CC(3,1,7) concatenation which is 8.2 dB SNR value for 10^?3 Bit Error Rate (BER). This result is very close to ideal AWGN channel value, which is 8 dB for 10^?3 BER.

Novel full-duplex SSB WDM-RoF system with SLM technique for decreasing PAPR

A novel full-duplex single-sideband (SSB) wavelength division multiplexing radio over fiber (WDM-RoF) system with selected mapping (SLM) technique for decreasing peak-to-average power ratio (PAPR) is proposed in this paper. At the central office (CO), the generated SSB signal carrying 10 Gbit/s 16-ary quadrature amplitude modulation orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (16QAM-OFDM) downstream signal with SLM technique is sent to the base station, and 60 GHz SSB optical signal carrying 10 Gbit/s 16QAM-OFDM upstream signal is sent back to CO utilizing the wavelength-reuse technology. Simulation results show the proposed method for PAPR reduction can effectively improve the sensitivity of receiver, and the power penalty of the 16QAM-OFDM downlink (uplink) signal is about 2 dB (3 dB) at BER of 1×10-3 after 42 km standard single-mode fiber (SSMF) transmission.

An adaptive modulation scheme for simultaneous voice and datatransmission over fading channels

We propose a new adaptive modulation technique for simultaneous voice and data transmission over fading channels and study its performance. The proposed scheme takes advantage of the time-varying nature of fading to dynamically allocate the transmitted power between the inphase (I) and quadrature (Q) channels. It uses fixed-rate binary phase shift keying (BPSK) modulation on the Q channel for voice, and variable-rate M-ary amplitude modulation (M-AM) on the I channel for data. For favorable channel conditions, most of the power is allocated to high rate data transmission on the I channel. The remaining power is used to support the variable-power voice transmission on the Q channel. As the channel degrades, the modulation gradually reduces its data throughput and reallocates most of its available power to ensure a continuous and satisfactory voice transmission. The scheme is intended to provide a high average spectral efficiency for data communications while meeting the stringent delay requirements imposed by voice. We present closed-form expressions as well as numerical and simulation results for the outage probability, average allocated power, achievable spectral efficiency, and average bit error rate (BER) for both voice and data transmission over Nakagami-m fading channels. We also discuss the features and advantages of the proposed scheme. For example, in Rayleigh fading with an average signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) of 20 dB, our scheme is able to transmit about 2 bits/s/Hz of data at an average BER of 10 ^-5 while sending about 1 bit/s/Hz of voice at an average BER of 10^-2     

Bidirectional hybrid OFDM based Wireless-over-fiber transport system using reflective semiconductor amplifier and polarization multiplexing technique

In this paper, a bidirectional hybrid OFDM based Wireless-over-fiber architecture has been investigated and demonstrated to transmit 10 Gbps as well as 6.25 Gbps OFDM data for downlink transmission and 5 Gbps as well as 2.5 Gbps OFDM data for uplink transmission over 50-km single mode fiber (SMF) employing polarization multiplexing technique (POLMUX) at optical line terminal (OLT) and optical network unit (ONU). The POLMUX technique is exercised by polarization beam splitters and polarization beam combiners. Mach-Zehnder modulator and RSOA have been used for modulation at OLT and ONU respectively. Transmission performances are observed by constellation diagrams, EVM and BER values. For 10 Gbps, 6.25 Gbps down-link signal and 5 Gbps, 2.5 Gbps up-link signal the power penalty of 3 dBm, 2.3 dBm and 4 dBm, 3.2 dBm at a BER of 10⁻⁹ between back-to-back and over 50-km SMF plus 10-m and 5-m wireless link, are observed respectively. For 32-QAM < 10.5% EVM and for 16-QAM < 13% EVM are recorded. Our architecture is a prominent alternative, not only due to its have potential of both optical and wireless technology but also it is offers a powerful platform to communicate high data rates and support various type of future unforeseen applications and services.     

Performance Evaluation of Different PSK Schemes in an OFDM System Using a Real Time Image

Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (OFDM) is a multicarrier modulation scheme that combines a large number of low data rate carriers into a composite high data communication system. Unlike in many other modulation techniques, the addition of cyclic prefix to the OFDM symbols combats the intersymbol interference and the orthogonality of the carriers allows it to combat Intercarrier interference in the OFDM modulation technique. Acknowledging these advantages, OFDM is the most preferred modulation technique in most of the next-generation wireless communication networks for transmitting many forms of digital data with higher efficiency. To evaluate the functionality and overall performance of an OFDM system, a digital data corresponding to a two-dimensional gray-scale image is used as a test signal. This paper aims at evaluating the performance of various phase shift keying (PSK) techniques taking a real time image as a test sample, which is converted into a form suitable for OFDM transmission, then transmitting the converted OFDM signal over the additive white Gaussian noise channel over various signal to noise ratio values. The performance is evaluated by comparing the clarity of the received image after demodulation with the original image, bit error rate (BER) Vs SNR, transmission and reception times of various PSK schemes (BPSK, QPSK,16-PSK and 256-PSK). The BER offered by BPSK is the least while transmission times offered by 256-PSK is the least. Along with these, different PSK schemes are compared by changing the clipping amplitude that is done to combat nonlinearities due to high peak to average power ratio.
